I've been using git for at least 6 years now, maybe 10.
Sites like this are a great aid to remembering how to deal with certain situations. And yes, I understand what the commands do, but that doesn't mean I always could, or always want to, put together the series of steps from scratch.
And also, we self-host our own gitea hosting because we're not getting sucked down by yet another hosting debacle (old enough to have suffered under sourceforge, and don't plan on getting in the same situation again). For git hosting just as much as everything else on line, if you're not paying for it, you're not the customer.

Yeah, lovely trope, but I'm literally talking about organizations hosting their Git repos on a file share here.
Why would you ask employees of a file hosting service about how to use git?
